After engine is warm, while driving at a high rate of speed (55mph+), I just began noticing a high-pitched noise coming from the engine that is directly correlated to the amount of pressure being applied to the accelerator. When accelerating, the noise gets louder. When you take your foot off the gas and coast, it goes away. This only happens when driving 55mph+ and after the engine is warm.It almost sounds like a motor of some kind is running just in front of the steering wheel. The weirdest part is it will make a noise for a few minutes, and then stop, and then come back within about a minute. Very odd. I took it to a guy here in town and he thought it was a wheel bearing. Nope, replaced the bearing and still making noise. He said he subscribes to this bulletin service and one he ran across that sounded like this problem was AT99-003. Don't know if that means anything to you. Another thing this guy mentioned was a clutch pack. I would greatly appreciate your thoughts/comments on this.

Get Answers About Your Engine Nissan1990 240SX Engine MalfunctionHi,My RPMs are fluctuating between 500 to 1000 almost every time the car is idling. The fluctuations become worse whenever I turn the air conditioner on and off. Sometimes, the engine almost stalls whenever I start it cold in the mornings. I recently had the car tuned up with all of the necessary components replaced (ie. spark plugs/wires, distributor, etc.) I'm not sure what else could be causing the rough idling. Is there another component to the engine that is often not examined that might be the problem? Is it an electrical problem or perhaps the battery itself? 1989 Sentra Engine ChuggingIt's a 1989 wagon. I just bought the car. The car has 90, 000 miles on it and it's very clean. It starts chugging and trying to stall sometimes when idling or or between 40-60 mph. Once the chugging starts it idles rough. Right after I bought the car, the fan stopped turning on and it was trying to get hot so I replaced the thermostat. It turns out the thermostat was stuck shut and that problem stopped, but it still chuggs. I noticed it does chugg more when warm. I have been going crazy trying to stop the chugging, and while trying to narrow down the problem I have replaced the egr valve, pcv valve, distributor, ignition wires, plugs, air filter and fuel filter. I also cleaned the throttle body with throttle body cleaner and changed suspicious vacuum hoses. Between the chugging spells it seems to run smooth. It's an automatic and I noticed that when it's doing the chugging that the shifting is really delayed. I'm stumped.1993 Sentra Engine Won't Starthi, a wire started smoking and burning under thehood that has 4 different color wires and a little black box on the end of that burnt.I made out the numbers 50v on it.The car ran and started a couple of times but not at all now.What type of relay is it and is this the troubleshoot, thanks! 1989 240SX Engine StickingHello,1.

Our analysis points to a broken timing chain.We have experience doing some auto repair, but I thought I'd check to see what I'm gettin into.

When car starting to move it lowers but when stopped and in gear it's quite audible. Also when turning on heater you can hear significant increase in the noise.

The engine starts and runs smoothly when it's cold. I've heard a lot of good ideas like checking the MAF, coolant temperature sensor, injectors, EGR, etc. I am just wondering if there is a particular place on these Stanzas that would most likely be the culprit.
